Application
Butyl isocyanide was used to study the crystal structure of carbon monoxide dehydrogenases-II isolated from Carboxydothermus hydrogenoformans. It was used to probe the mechanism of NO activation of the hemoprotein soluble guanylate cyclase. .
Biochem/physiol Actions
Butyl isocyanide forms complex with ferric and ferrous iron of the heme in cytochrome P450.
Other Notes
May form haziness and/or precipitate with no loss in purity.

Heme-external ligand interactions of P-450nor were examined spectrophotometrically and compared with those of other P-450s. Most nitrogenous ligands induced type II spectral changes on binding to ferric P-450nor, as did other P-450s. In contrast with other P-450s, 2-methylpyridine and 1-butanol

Addition of tert-butylisocyanide (tBuNC) to a CD2Cl2 solution of the bis(perchlorato)(meso-tetramesitylporphyrinato) iron(III) cation radical leads to the formation of the corresponding bis(adduct), [Fe(TMP)(tBuNC)2]2+, whose electronic structure is in sharp contrast to that of the corresponding imidazole(HIm) complex, [Fe(TMP)(HIm)2]2+; the former
